I wanted to share with you a great op-ed from tennis legend Pat Cash written for CNN.com. In the piece he asserts that the men’s game has become boring and that tennis was more entertaining in the past.

Here are some exclusive quotes…

Quotes

“Nowadays they all settle down and say “OK, this is going to be two hours of baseline rallies.” The guy who outlasts the other one wins. It’s taken a lot of the skill out of tennis.”

“Nadal and Djokovic are exceptional athletes, there’s no doubt about it, but to say they are better athletes than past greats like Bjorn Borg and Stefan Edberg is just nonsense.”

“Human beings love variety. We don’t want to watch the same style of play, we don’t want to watch the same shots all of the time. Players have got to mix it up.”
